The Sinclair Window (South Wall of Chancel)

A fifteenth century (Perpendicular Style) window was uncovered during repairs to the church in 1879. Artist unknown. The first light depicts "Spes" or "Hope" as a female head and the text "Thou art my hiding place and my shield. I hope in Thy Word". In the centre light "Fides" or "Faith" is depicted as a knight in armour. Beneath is a male Victorian worthy and the text "This is the victory which overcometh the world, even our faith". The right hand light depicts "Caritas" ("Charity" or "Love") as a female holding a basket of apples. Beneath is a female head and the text "Let us love one another for love is of God".
